sightings is not evidence

if we would take most sightings seriously we could say that the easter bunny is real

Please do yes.gif Find a way to post the picture, or else it seems suspicious that you 'don't have a scanner'...

Plus, I thought the other person had a photo, not you? Where did you get it from?

Ohh man

I cannot wait for this. innocent.gif

How about our local newsagent??, or any local printer should be able to scan that in a jiffy for a very minimal cost. Perhaps even go to an internet cafe` and post straight online. No waiting thumbsup.gif

A picture will be ineteresting to say the least, however I must say I am astounded that 3 people have so far voted yes. ohmy.gif

Oh Christ on a bike, can this thread be locked? Obviously it was just a sad, childish attempt at poking fun at another member of the forum. To get that member riled. And it's worked. apart from that, there is no point to it. Regardless of who the target is, it's sad and purile. Eric I agree with you about 99% of the time, but this isn't called for. I thought you were better than that, man.

LoL, sounds like when i was 8 years old fighting with my brother about a picture i took of a eagle in my door.

anyways, if the mermaid was real, i would suggest that it had to do something with the experimental thing.
if it has existed long time ago, then lol, what kind of horny woman would have sex with a fish to create a hybrid :/
Urisk
Well for one thing a very hopeful horny woman, since fish don't have penises laugh.gif

Voted yes they exsist. They fall under the "why not?" category for me.

Yeah yeah food, breathing, bio problems, not well documented, misidentified manatees... still.... for me it's a "why not?" so for me they exsist.

But I don't live near the ocean, and I don't like fish... so it's not something I think about alot...
Hotoke
a human body with no gills and with the lower half of a fish.....

how does it breath? or swim fast without any other fins? What does it eat? and why are there not any bodies washed ashore? I think sharks would end the existence of these creatures

impossible to exist

The whole point of this was that this kid claims he saw something as fantastical as a mermaid, but jumps down the throat of other people who claim to have seen some just as fantastical.
I would also like to see this supposed pic.
